G for Glitzy

Hey lovely ladies! Hope all is well with  you. Monthly beauty boxes has been so popular in the US and UK and I have always envied basically everyone who gets to receive it. I am constantly searching if we have it here only to get dissappointed every single time.  Until one day, the beauty boxes fairy appears in my dream to be the bearer of this exciting news, Glambox would be available in the UAE! :) Nope, I read a post in February and came to know about it a little late. It already started in January, I tried to buy a subscription immediately after seeing the post but it was sold out and I was put in the waiting list. After two weeks I finally get to squeeze in to their list and  bought my initial 3 months subscription.  My dear friends, I am proud to present to you my very first Glambox! :) As you can see, here's the list of what I've got. Viktor & Rolf Flower Bomb EDP (7 ml sample size) Miriam Quevedo Extreme Caviar Intensive Anti-aging Hai

Hey everyone! We're already on the third month of the year and February went by in a blur for me. We've been so busy at work and feel like it's draining my time and energy hence the scarcity of my post. So I decided that my first March post  would be to show you the products that I've used up last month. It's a mishmash of things that I love and those that I didn't hate but kind of regret spending my money on. I'm trying to really finish up the product not only the "hits" but even the "misses" ones because I don't want to waste it. It's quite an achievement for me every time I will finish something up.  BIODERMA SENSEBIO H2O CLEANSER This was my third one and I still have 4 back up bottles, suffice it to say that I really admire this product.  I love how it took off my make up without aggravating my skin. I use it to remove eye make up as well. I soaked the cotton pad with this and hold it over my eyes for half a m

I know this post has long been overdue.   DSF ended last Feb 05 and I’ve picked up all these items  on the last week of January.   If you are wondering what DSF is, it stands for Dubai Shopping Festival. It is an annual month long shopping, cultural, and entertainment event which started back in 1996 and aimed to promote Dubai tourism.   This is the ideal time of year to grab your favorite high street brands at rock bottom prices.   Every malls and shops are offering the greatest discount you can ever imagine.   I didn’t get much, though.    I just came back from a vacation and my bank account has just been emptied. J So let me show you few things that I bought from Victoria’s Secret.   Items are at   25%,   50% and   75% off.    There you have it! I really had a wonderful time hopping from one VS store to another.  It was such a great bargain, you can't just pass up an opportunity to stock up on your favorite items.  Bisou bisou,

I am not a big fan of glitter polishes just because removing them on your nails is nightmare. I’ve purchased these two NYX polishes for quite a while now and I don’t know why I just let it sit in my drawer and never get around to trying it. I should’ve given my nails a festive make over with this polish. Since summer is fast approaching here in Dubai, I would take advantage of the remaining winter days to wear this color. I used Sally Hansen as my base coat. It is important to use a base coat before applying the actual nail polish because it will help protect your nail keratin. Then I added one coat of NYX Perfect Gray. I just want a thin application of this as I am planning to put a thick layer of glittered nail polish. Perfect Gray goes on opaque in three coats; make sure to remember that if you plan on wearing it alone. I then layered two heavy coats of Frizzy spots.   It is a black jelly based polish with big and small silver hexagonal glitters.   I tried wearing it
